The great china firewall has blocked all blogspots. so my brother will be updating the blog from now on.



there are a few photos here. one is a picture of the family having a chinese tack out. TATA even has his own little bit to eat. the food was good, but not like the chinese take outs back in the uk.


as prommised, i have written down things that seem a little strange so i dont forget them, now here they are... :-)

i have said befor that when you walk around every one, even old ladies with the grand sons stop and stare at you. i didnt reallise just how much i stuck out untill a few days ago,
i was walking back from work, and just as i entered my estate, i noticed a man walking a dog,, a small bull dog like creature.

as i drew level with the dog it stopped walking and looked up, and stayed still even as the owner walked past it and tugged on the lead, it stayed put and watch me untill i walk about 30 odd paces past it. it was a shock to the system to even have a dog transfixed by your presents.

at the kinder garden where i work, a 2 year old always played with the water dispenser, so the head teacher in the class room, grabbed the child's finger and put it under the hot water part, then let some water trickle over the tiny finger,,,,,, this water comes out close to boiling, the child instantly started crying and ran away from the dispenser, i suppose it is a good lesson to learn, better to burn a finger than an arm, or a face, the kids hasn't been so close to the dispenser since.

generally the road sweepers are people. but every now and ten you get a motor sweeper, these sweepers are maybe double the size of the ones in the uk, and rather than just go around sweeping roads, these ones also play a relaxing pipe music. it took my back when the music from the distance came around a corner in the shape of a speaker from a road sweeper.

one photo is of a man and bike,,, or man and plastic bottle transporter. entertaining to see it drive past you :-)

anotehr is of a construction site.. not just a building but a block of buildings will go up at one time,,,

a few photos of me and some kids and dryed kiwi.. yummy
and of course to save money any sweets bought are cut up into tiney tiney bits to be given to the kids.. meaning a starburst sized chewy sweet can feed 8 or 9 kids.


ok thats what i have written down.. i will attempt to creat a new blog which i did on yahoo360. however that blog is not good. i need another one with more controle over what gose in, ie more than 1 photo at a time, simple navigation and add support are all needed, as well as being able to update from china..

[my apologies if the photos dont show up - I may need some practice at this - it's coming up all weird, so I am just parctising with three and will post the other photos separately - Paul]
